“This was a long and drawn-out deal that required huge patience and perseverance by all parties” said Rupert Cattell. “I have been a commercial lawyer for nearly 35 years and I have never seen anything like it.
The entire delay was down to the vendor’s solicitor who showed all parties the importance of picking a lawyer who understands the needs of the parties, knows what they are doing and gets on with the job.
Despite all the problems this solicitor caused we managed to keep the deal alive and many congratulations to both buyer and seller for their patience and fortitude. Choose a lawyer who is an old friend and you will probably lose both the deal and the friend!”
